Downstairs loo and sink unblocking, by jetting upstream from manhole in the garden.

"Brilliant. From the first phone call to saying goodbye. Job explained, job completed and everything works perfectly. The young guy called Tommy from Sunbury was top drawer. Going to do this jetting annually now."

Unblock Outside Drain

"The only thing they drained was my bank account for a £75 plus VAT call out charge. However in all fairness they are a business not a charity and it's not their fault at least they turned up and attempted to unblock it on a Saturday as well (I called them same day) very responsive! It's now an Anglian Water problem."

1st time customer - Excellent experience

"1st time using Checkatrade. Polite and efficient experience from beginning to end, with clear/ transparent pricing + quick availability of plumber. I chose to use Happy Drains... who were available same day to unblock kitchen sink. Damian from Happy Drains was friendly and cheerful, but always polite and professional and persistent with unblocking drain. Damian had a powerful acqua vac that was required to unblock the drain. Not an easy job, but Damian persisted and determined to get job done. No surprises with charges...exactly as quoted and very reasonable. Recommended."

Common causes

• Disposing of oils and cooking fats down Finsbury drains and plug holes- the liquid fats can quickly solidify in the waste pipes and drains system and are difficult to remove.
• Scale build up in Finsbury drains caused by detergents, particularly in hard water areas
• Products like disposable nappies, sanitary towels, cotton wool buds, newspapers and cat litter being flushed down Finsbury toilets - they will eventually clog Finsbury drains stopping the flow of water.
• pouring cement and plaster based material down Finsbury drains - these will do as they are designed to do i.e. go rock-hard in the drain
• pouring waste oil from cars bikes and vans into Finsbury drains - it is illegal to do this so be aware.
• Collapsed or damaged Finsbury pipes.

What if drains keep blocking? Drain CCTV Surveys

This may suggest that the Finsbury pipes are faulty. Tree root penetration and subsidence are common causes of broken Finsbury pipes. We use CCTV to solve your Finsbury drainage problems - fast.

For drains both foul and surface water drains that are smaller than 150mm (6 inches) we use a push rod camera system, which is essentially a high spec specialist camera attached onto a long rod, which as the name suggests can be manually navigated by pushing through the Finsbury drains to identify issues and can take digital stills of any problems.

We specialise in Finsbury CCTV drain surveys and complete with fully detailed comprehensive written and easy to understand written report: -

• Home Buyers
• Building Sites
• Commercial Properties
• Problem Solving
• Environmental Concerns

In larger Finsbury pipework we use all motorised wheel drive crawler system to traverse a pipe. Again we drive the crawler through the Finsbury drain or sewer stopping when we find a defect taking close-up images and identifying the location using a meter counter. 

We will then understand the full scope of the repairs required to offer you the best options in terms of the most cost-effective repairs.

Repairing Finsbury Greater London drains pipes and sewers

Drain repairs in Finsbury can be expensive, there are so many varying factors such as depth of the pipe and the ground finish. 

As Finsbury drainage experts we employ various techniques to mitigate costs including "no dig" options also known as (CIPP) drain lining which can provide a very cost effective solution. This approach does not involve excavations and therefor faster and more cost effective.

The Cured in Place (CIP) technique known as 'inversion' is used to mould a new polyester pipe inside the old damaged pipe and is even better in terms of hydraulic efficiency than installing a new pipe. Call for further information.

During the course of any work including tradition repairs that involve excavations in Finsbury EC1V and Greater London we will take care and consideration of you and your property by working safely. We work to the highest standards and CHAS registered.

Whatever the type of repair engaged to undertake, you will be safe hands.
